ABOUT THIS ALBUM

Album Notes

A group of friends from Denton Tx. coming from such bands as: Warren Jackson Hearne and the Merrie Murdre of Gloomadeers, Record Hop, Super Love Attack, Current Leaves, Fabulous Badasses, jetscreamer, The Make Believers and Burnt Sienna. We gots Acoustic Guitar, Bandolin, Manjo, Lead Guitar, Pedal Steel, 12 String Electric, Theramin, Drums, Percusions, Disc Brakes, Ball ping Hammers, Cowbell, Sheet Metal, Bass Guitar, 4 vocalists and plenty of room for more alcohol. If you'd like to buy us all a round it'll cost ya a pretty penny, but you'll be glad you did.

"Pope Crow" sounds like pure Texan revelry that you'll want to join with. Imagine the Rolling Stones in their early 70's country era, mixed with a little of the White Stripes rollickingly tight but wild rock sensibility. Or maybe like Frank Black's better solo stuff mixed with 16 Horsepower; there's a dark undercurrent to much of the sound, but the band revels in the sad, sometimes angry feelings that their country songs bring out. It sounds on the verge of going off the rails, but always stays on track, and it's a great listen. The mix is totally pro, vocals are mostly dry and up front, but not overbearing, and the bands 8 (!) members keep the songs focused yet varied. I think I can safely say this sounds like it was recorded by the funnest bunch of drunken country rockers ever.
